Epidemiology
В соответствии с информацией ВОЗ, около 2 миллиардов людей, треть общего населения Земли, инфицировано. В настоящее время туберкулёзом ежегодно заболевает 9 миллионов человек во всём мире, из них 3 миллиона умирают от его осложнений. (По другим данным, ежегодно 8 миллионов заболевают туберкулёзом, а 2 миллиона умирает.
Отмечено, что заболеваемость туберкулёзом зависит от неблагоприятных условий (стрессовой нагрузки), а также от индивидуальных характеристик организма человека (например, от группы крови и возраста заболевшего).
Из числа заболевших в целом доминирует возрастная группа 18 — 26 лет. Однако, несмотря на этот факт, в странах, где заболеваемость туберкулёзом значительно снизилась — таких, как Америка — доминировать среди заболевших стала статистическая группа пожилых людей.
Существует несколько факторов, вызывающих повышенную восприимчивость человека к туберкулёзу:
- Наиболее значимым в мире стал ВИЧ;
- Курение (особенно более 20 сигарет в день) — увеличивает вероятность туберкулёза в 2—4 раза;
- Диабет.
